A matter I wish to raise that will come up in more detail later on concerns interpretation. One of the fundamental issues we will be discussing later on concerns structural separation. In the interests of clarity and possible reassurance to allay some fears that might be out there, there should be a clear definition of structural separation. It is worded in the Bill and a full section is afforded to it but it is not mentioned in the interpretation. We could introduce an interpretation of the terms "structural separation" on Report Stage or deal with it later in a different type of wording. It is fundamental to some of the concerns, which may only be perceived. Let us debate this later on, but it is something we need to address.
